This memorandum addresses provisions which reduce the number of reimbursable meals that can be claimed by camps and migrant site in SFSP and child care centers in CACFP.
As a follow-up to our December 1994 advisory memo to the regions which stated that this issue would be addressed in more detail in the future, this memo changes the existing FSMC reporting requirements policy to allow exception reporting by all state agencies.
On Jan. 6, 1993, the Food and Drug Administration announced in a final rule that, effective May 8, 1994, the current food label reference values, the U.S. Recommended Daily Allowances (U.S.RDAs), will be identified as the Reference Daily Intakes, or RDIs.
This notice serves to inform the public that Knudson and Sons, Inc., the manufacturer of ``Jamaican Style Lemonade Spritzer,'' "Orange Passionfruit Spritzer,'' and "Orange Spritzer,'' has petitioned FNS to exempt these products from the "Categories of Foods of Minimal Nutritional Value'' under the National School Lunch and the School Breakfast programs.
Section 10 of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 permits the Secretary to authorize any state or regional office, where applicable, to reserve up to 1 percent of the funds earned in any fiscal year under both the National School Lunch Act and the CNA for special developmental projects.
A state agency may make payment for meals served in accordance with provisions of the program in the calendar month preceding the calendar month in which the agreement is executed. This provision applies only to center programs and to home programs which are renewing their agreements. The agreements of new home sponsoring organizations may not be backdated.
